Zoa flow help

[Jgill70]

I was wondering if this was to much flow or not enough for my zoas. The zoas in the middle have begun to melt for some reason while the others are doing ok

There's no video, so nothing to see :(

Why won’t it let me attach a video

Can’t see video but moderate light and flow and occasional addition of iodide which they convert to iodine

Another approach to adding the video is to put it on YouTube (or comparable) and then attach the link. Good luck!

I have zoa in flow levels of acro and some in flow areas of frogspawn. As long as there is flow your fine. I would look at nutrients and light. That being said, zoa's in my tank also range from 250 par down to 50 par.

Need to know your water parameters. I have some Zoes (Twizzlers/4 little heads) that don't do anything but exist no matters where I put them. Some are just picky little critters.
I don't see any algae in your pic but if there is something on or around the frag that bothers them, then you need to dip em. A dip with Iodine and a dip of Peroxide solution and then see what happens.

Btw, when adding a video or picture, don't use the "attach files" button at the bottom of the comment area. Use the ones at the top of the comment area that say "insert image", "media" etc. when you point at them.

I have some zoas that are absolutely getting blasted by my mp40s and some that are in much lower flow. The happiest ones are the ones that are getting blasted - but I may have just gotten lucky with some crazy zoas.

I had zoas melt in my tank initially due to bad water parameters. Check you alk, nitrate, and phosphate! My alk was down near 6 when mine melted.

I have Zoas in low, medium and high flow. They are all fine. I would check other things like parameters, light, something munching on em.
